To inject variety and test pure fundamental skill, developers frequently feature 'Draft' modes in special events and tournaments.
You cannot rely on overleveled cards or muscle memory from playing the same deck for two years.
Drafting Priorities
The absolute most critical rule of drafting is ensuring you select at least one reliable 'Win Condition' (a card that targets buildings).
Secondly, you must prioritize heavy removal spells like Poison, Fireball, or Lightning.
Never give your opponent a Golem if you haven't drafted a tank killer.Skeletons or Ice Spirits are universally useful.Clog their hand with heavy, useless units.
The Art of the Bad Gift
Try to identify what kind of deck they are accidentally building, and feed them cards that completely ruin that synergy.
Their average elixir cost will skyrocket, their hand will be completely clogged, and they will be unable to defend your cheap, fast attacks.

Embracing the Chaos
Even if you draft perfectly, you will sometimes end up with an incredibly weird, clunky deck due to bad RNG.
Draft modes force you out of your comfort zone, teaching you how to use cards you normally ignore.
